in favor OF purchasing two dozen rocking
chairs and inviting the ladies to occupy

as an amendment that the committee be
continued and authorized to pay $S6 per
dozen for chairs. i.
Mr.. ELLIOTT said he had looked upon
Mr.. Fletcher as rival, but after so ungal-
liant proposition he (Elliott) expected to
recover his Old-time precedence.

MIR. DODDS moved that council bill No.
"a be returned from the judiciary commit
tee and made special order for o'clock
today. .--. E. .,- H..
Mr. FELLOWS opposed the motion. He
said he had been placed in false position
by being accused of endeavoring to defeat
the bill through personal malice. He de-
clared there was lobby here who were
endeavOring to force the bill through
without due consideration. He asked for
posuponement Of consideration until the
people of Grand Forks can have an oppor-
tnnity to be heard. He sent to the clerks
desk and had read letters and petition
received by him bearing upon the subject,
and asked that they be printed in the jour
nal.
Mr.. DODDS said his object in asking the
recall of the bill was to have the facts as
they really exist brought out. He thought
the charge that there was lobby here to
force the bill through not true. Mr.. Dodds
then gave history of the case, and said he
believed an outrage had been committed,
and that it was the duty Of this house to
right it.
MIR. FELLOWS said all he asked was
that the bill should take it's regular course,
and that he should be given time IN which
to show this body that he had been placed
in a false light.
The motion was lost.
